Ride the wings of the mind User ID: 51753585 United States 12/20/2018 05:57 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Hospitals are dangerous, deadly places, and new research finds that MRSA superbugs contaminate nearly 90 percent of hospital privacy curtains Quoting: C.K. Dexter Haven "the research team tracked contamination rates for 10 newly laundered privacy curtains in the Regional Burns/Plastics Unit of the Health Services Center in Winnipeg, Canada over a 21-day period. Virtually contamination-free at the outset, by day 14, over 87 percent of the curtains tested positive for MRSA. Control curtains that were not put in patient rooms remained contamination free for the entire study period. Interestingly – and scarily – none of the patients in the rooms where the curtains were tested had MRSA themselves. Instead, the contamination occurred on parts of the curtains that were frequently touched by caregivers and visitors, suggesting that it was this direct contact that was spreading the disease." less than 50% [link to www.naturalnews.com (secure)] Why people are still encouraged to visit 'loved ones' in the hospital..I will never understand.

Here's the truth of it, if you've touched a door handle or a dollar bill, your hands are covered in ass. Plain and simple. MRSA is like AIDS being spread by hospitals, instead of drug users and sexual deviants. Difficulties strengthen the Mind as labor does the body... ~Seneca |

Here in Nepal the hospitals are grubby places lol, no screens but portable ones they drag around and the patient MUST have a relative or carer at all times cos they don't feed them and all equpiment and drugs etc has to be fetched by the carer from the pharmacies in the street so a 10 bed ward that's full has 10 people sleeping on the floor etc - crazy, but i have not read anything about MRSA here? |

If you ever get and survive MRSA..you will have 'flagged file' for the rest of your life here. I know someone, who most likely caught it from snorting drugs, using some denomination of the US $$$. She caught it right next to her nose..and lucky she didn't lose part of her face. Now she has Stage 3 cancer, at 41. Staph is held in the nose. Staph turns into MRSA and kills everyone..

JAZZZ50 2020 The SHTF literally as TP ran out. we went from being over the target, to actually being the target. too close to the truth. if i had a dollar for everytime someone says "merge" without using the word, i'd b so green i'd b King of Mars. |
